"Belleisle would probably be the best public course in Scotland if it werent for those upstarts, St Andrews and Carnoustie. Tour players like to sharpen their pencils before major competitions here!"

"Lochgreen has been used as an Open Qualifier and is a course of links quality with many holes reminiscent of its close neighbour Royal Troon. You dont get away with anything less than confident driving and commanding second shots."

"Darley is a true links, as in the wildcat variety. It has true feline ferocity and should be approached with extreme caution!" - David Whyte, Scotlands famous golf travel writer
